Perfect day for a bike ride
or installing a microwave
| The microwave won! |

| I was looking forward to a medium-paced, somewhat-long ride today on the trace. The temperature had been predicted to be in the 60’s, which it was. I really needed a ride, physically and mentally. I am about 70 miles behind the straight-line projection of 2500 miles for the year. But instead of a bike I got to ride this microwave up the wall, holding and pushing with one arm and screwing it to the top shelf with the other.
I went to make popcorn last night and all I got was arcs and sparks. Since there is no way we can go a day without a microwave we were off to Lowes this morning for a replacement. I don’t know which was more tiring, taking the old one down or putting the new one up. Had to drill all new holes of course and put up a new mounting bracket. My arms were so tired I could hardly lift them. Well, if my need was for exercise I guess the day was a success, but I prefer it on a bike. |
